My Mum has only been in Riverside Court since 28th of November 2025. She was originally going for 3 months respite care, but settled in so well,she is now a permanent resident! This is due to the care she is being given by the staff and also all the wonderful activities the residents are able to do
! The visit earlier this month by the owls was amazing! My Mum also seems to be putting weight back on after loosing lots in the few months before she arrived in the home, I am putting this down to good meals that she is enjoying.
I also really like the relatives gateway. It is good to get a feel for how your relative is getting on, on a day to day basis.

Once again I can only praise the staff at Riverside Court for their continuing care of my parent. Over the last few years I have got to know many of the staff who have been at Riverside Court since dad moved in. They have always been extremely kind and considerate towards dad as Alzheimer's has
taken its hold. I can only thank them for their amazing support.

Riverside Court is managed by a wonderful, hard working, efficient and caring manager. The lovely staff always make me so welcome when I visit and they look after my elderly mum so well. It is such a relief to know that she is in such safe hands and to know that she is receiving all her medication
and health care. It is very much a home from home and my mum is very happy there.
There are many activities and I was lucky enough to visit when there were several birds of prey being shown! I have also taken part in one of the regular residents and family meetings where ideas and feedback could be discussed.
The home continues with refurbishment making everything look really nice and it is always very clean.
I am so thankful that mum managed to get a place at Riverside. She loves the views and all the activity she can see outside.

The care home has been great for my mother in law. There are always plenty of activities that she is involved in. She has a lovely room overlooking the river and the care home is always nice and warm. The staff are friendly and welcoming.

Mum is looked after beautifully at Riverside. The activities give her stimulation that she was so lacking living at home. The diversity of these keep her mind active and engaged.
All of the staff are welcoming and cheery, never tiring of looking after the residents with love and care.

Staff are always friendly and accommodating when I visit and keep me in the loop regarding my mum who has been a resident there for a couple of years. The home is very clean and tidy with good security systems in place.

My dad is 99 and until recently had been fairly independent but his health and mobility are in steady decline. Despite this the staff at Riverside continue to ensure that dad is well cared for, well fed and included in any activities as best he can.
I cannot praise the staff highly enough for
their dedication to his care and wellbeing.

Whenever I telephone, the staff and manager are extremely helpful, they are able to take my parent out around the town in a wheel chair to local shops which is great, and are very patient. The home is always immaculate clean and tidy and many members of staff have worked there for between 10 and 20
years which proves it is a happy place to work. From what I am told the tea time menu is either soup and roll or a sandwich which does not seem very substantial .

Mum continues to have wonderful care and support at Riverside Court. By living here we are both able to have a better quality of life. Mum is safe, well cared for and loved, which means I can feel more relaxed knowing she is so well cared for. Mum recently celebrated her 90th birthday and it was so
heartwarming to see the fuss the staff made of her. I cannot thank Riverside enough for all they do for mum and I, it is very much appreciated.

My mother is into her third year at Riverside Court. She continues to thrive on the friendly and considerate support that she receives. Undoubtedly, the consistent kindness, care and social interaction shown by all the staff are major factors in achieving this outcome.

My Mother has been at Riverside for over 6 years. She is very well looked after, nothing is too much trouble for the staff. They are so friendly, caring and attentive. She is very happy and content.

Riverside Court embodies the 'caring' part of a care home - which is so important for the well-being of the resident and reassurance of their family. My mum came in at very short notice for respite/convalescence from an emergency stay in hospital. We felt welcome immediately and were hugely relieved
to find somewhere where she could recover properly. Despite her considerable resilience, she needed both physical and health care and some restoration of her spirits. The warm, kind, friendly ethos of the home, shown by every member of staff, got her back on her feet and back to an independent full life again - in just a few weeks. We're hugely grateful.

Absolutely brilliant care home... run by absolutely brilliant people... cannot thank you enough for looking after my dad... it was so reassuring to know he was cared for 24/7 by lovely, friendly staff... thank you so much for everything.
15 August 2024
Very friendly staff and well-managed care home. Mum is well cared for and is as happy as it is possible for her to be now she is so frail and has lost her eyesight. It is good to know she is being well cared for and comfortable when we could not manage to look after her ourselves.
15 August 2024
Excellent service from all the caring staff. The staff understand that they have to be patient and understanding when dealing with potentially difficult situations. They are also flexible in providing quality meals for patients who have unusual requests.

My wife was a resident at Riverside Court for 16 months. During this time she never settled or felt like it was her home. I was very disappointed with the overall quality of care and support she received during this time. Placing your loved one in the care of others is a very big leap of faith, as
you never truly know what the care home and staff are like until it's too late.
Based on my experience I can not recommend this care home.
My wife has since moved into an excellent care home that truly put their residents first, the difference is amazing, and my wife is finally happy and settled in her new home.

Mum is well looked after and cared for.
The staff are supportive of her needs and also empathise with myself during this difficult stage of life. I’m pleased that the home is not a huge residential one, as it retains a family type home.

We are generally very pleased with the care given to both our parents in the home. Staff are mostly excellent and considerate and we appreciate they work incredibly hard to make our parent's lives as comfortable as possible in sometimes challenging situations. Staff are very cheerful and patient.

Dad moved to Riverside Court at the start of 2024. His health was failing and sadly it was not to be a long stay. He passed away suddenly in February. He was fiercely independent and had always been resistant to the idea of a care home. But Riverside was a wonderful conclusion to a happy life. In
the circumstances, he could not have been happier and the warmth and care he received was notable. We will always be grateful.
27 September 2023
Excellent care offered and understanding of the resident's complicated and demanding needs. All staff and management are cheerful and caring despite putting up with difficult and at times, demanding residents.
